Smoke Hole Caverns and Log Cabin/RV Resort offers ten RV sites positioned directly on the river with full hookups including electric, water, sewer, and cable. Seneca Shadows Campground accommodates larger rigs with 38 RV sites, some featuring electric and 30-amp service. "Only 10 sites right on the river. Great fishing. Very quiet. Full hookups for RVs including cable," noted one camper about Smoke Hole.

Navigation through the mountain roads requires caution, particularly when approaching campgrounds from the south where sharp turns may challenge larger motorhomes. Cell service varies significantly across the region, with AT&T generally providing better coverage than Sprint/T-Mobile. Between March and December, most RV parks remain operational, though fall foliage season fills sites quickly. Dump stations are available at Smoke Hole, Five River, and Seneca Shadows for waste disposal. Many campgrounds welcome pets, though Smoke Hole Caverns notably prohibits them according to posted signage. For RVers seeking level sites, Five River Campground offers some of the most level pads in the area, while others may require blocks for proper stabilization.

Very accommodating, we are traveling through and called at the last minute for a spot overnight. We stayed right on the creek.
Quit, right along the creek, dollar general is right down the street. If only that house wasn’t looking down on me🤷♂️
Beautiful camping sites along the river! This is a small State Park, but packs a punch with some beautiful trails, and direct river access from almost half of the sites. Nice camp store and heated, full bath houses with showers. Note that sites are gravel….so if tenting bring a cot and/or some extra cushioning. Wi fi is available within close range of the camp store. I was at Site #8.
Friendly staff, great riding right from the camper and a neat playground for the kids.
Dispersed camping beyond the actual quarry. A lot of rain occurred in the days prior but on my visit over two days. Bright and sunny. However, it was a lot of road wash out and a lot of standing water as you made your way toward dispersed spots. Apparently, I was the only one there, because they were many, many spots open for camping. Nice pre-visited sites and was able to camp near running stream.
There are 25 or so established sights at Mower Basin and you're bound to find one with an incredible view of the mountains. Sight 12 took my breath away, but unfortunately as a tent camper the wind pushed us down to the lake sight just passed it. It was close to the road but still felt private. Everyone who passed our sight was very friendly. It's a gorgeous place, and from someone who's never been to Virginia, it was the perfect place to have my first experience. We will probably go back when we are heading back down south.
Arrived late (after dark) owner met us entrance and site with a flashlight to help back in. Provided his number in case we had any problems. Extremely nice
The camp is small. Only 10 sites. Camp sites have been refreshed with new boarders and fill. Pretty well maintained with clean porta-poti. Small walking trail with educational maps and info. Pretty interesting history. There Is a picnic area with tables and a pavilion. Some larger hiking trails nearby. It's primitive camping, no water or electric, but for $10 it gives you some amenities. It was a beautiful fall weekend and there was only one other camper there.
